Care Human Powered Vehicle
How might we take those who depend on us out for a trip in 2032?
Care is a human powered vehicle that can best be described as a vehicle for carers. The design allows parents to cycle to the shop with the kids, or for a community carer to take an elderly person to an appointment.
New forms of human powered vehicles are becoming more accepted as viable environmental responses to the rising sea levels and price of oil. But, to engage a car reliant culture, it is necessary to replicate some of the comfort, safety and convenience of cars that families have become accustomed to. The Care Human Powered Vehicle provides comfort and safety to those without the balance or stamina to ride conventional bikes, for example, small children and the elderly.
